Corelle Dinnerware Sweepstakes!

August 20, 2014

Did you know cracked or chipped dishes are shrinking the guest list? Half of Americans are embarrassed to host new friends with their current dinnerware and nearly one in three Americans (29 percent) estimate they could only entertain up to four guests with their current dinnerware.* Americans are faced with difficult decisions, like having to choose which sibling to have over for dinner, or regretfully not extending an invite to parents and in-laws to avoid “plate shame.”

The Corelle® brand team and Second City Communications – the business solutions division of the world-renowned improvisational theatre company –have teamed up to create a string of humorous videos identifying common situations where people feel “plate shame.” The videos will be released throughout the rest of summer and fall unlocking product prizes with sweepstakes** along the way.

The Corelle brand team realizes people are embarrassed by their current dinnerware and Corelle dinnerware provides the perfect solution. Corelle dinnerware is made with durable Vitrelle® glassware technology, designed to minimize the risk of plate shame for years to come. The Corelle brand offers chip and break resistant options to suit any style, including 75 designs incorporating modern patterns, floral decor and more.

“With more than half (52 percent) of Americans saying that some of their dinnerware is chipped or cracked and they are embarrassed to entertain at home as a result – the legendary durability and versatility of Corelle dinnerware provides a simple and cost-effective solution,” says Kristin Lynch, Vice President, Brand Marketing and Product Development, World Kitchen. “We worked with Second City Communications to create fun, sharable videos that bring humor to the issues people have as a result of chipped dinnerware.”

Stop hoarding old dinnerware, nearly half of parents (46 percent) say their dinnerware is older than their first born child.* It’s time to make the switch to Corelle dinnerware to avoid “plate shame” once and for all.
